Quantum fields give us a feeling as if there should be an ultimate stationary reference frame in our universe since the vacuum is not an empty space but is filled with these fields. This issue is quite non-trivial and I was talking also with professional physicists who were also confused about this topic. In this video, I explain briefly how quantum field theory was created and what these fields mean. It becomes very obvious why these fields can't serve as an ultimate stationary frame of reference in our universe since their Lagrangian densities are invariant under Lorentz transformations.

Thanks for your interesting video. Area under a curve is often equivalent to energy. Buckling of an otherwise flat field shows a very rapid growth of this area to a point. If my model applies, it may show how the universe’s energy naturally developed from the inherent behavior of fields. Your subscribers might want to see this 1:29 minutes video showing under the right conditions, the quantization of a field is easily produced. The ground state energy is induced via Euler’s contain column analysis. Containing the column must come in to play before over buckling, or the effect will not work. The sheet of elastic material “system”response in a quantized manor when force is applied in the perpendicular direction. Bonding at the points of highest probabilities and maximum duration( ie peeks and troughs) of the fields “sheet” produced a stable structure when the undulations are bonded to a flat sheet that is placed above and below the core material. Some say this model is no different than plucking guitar strings. You can not make structures with vibrating guitar strings or harmonic oscillators. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wrBsqiE0vG4.htmlsi=waT8lY2iX-wJdjO3 At this time in my research, I have been trying to describe the “U” shape formed that is produced before phase change. In the model, “U” shape waves are produced as the loading increases and just before the wave-like function shifts to the next higher energy level. Over-lapping all frequencies together using Fournier Transforms, can produce a “U” shape or square wave form. Wondering if Feynman Path Integrals for all possible wave functions could be applicable here too? If this model has merit, seeing the sawtooth load verse deflection graph produced could give some real insight in what happened during the quantum jumps between energy levels. The mechanical description and white paper that goes with the video can be found on my LinkedIn and RU-vid pages. You can reproduce my results using a sheet of Mylar* ( the clear plastic found in some school essay folders. Seeing it first hand is worth the effort!

it is a bit backwards to say virtual particles are quantum fluctuations, when you really only have uncertainties in the values of quantum fields in the vacuum, the whole virtual particle thing is just a ad hock short hand mental crutch, we never see them we only see their effects in terms of measured uncertainties in terms of changed distributions of outcomes. the idea of vitual particles or really particles at all is a split brained classical intuition threaded through a familiarity with quantum terminology in my opinion. what we really have is a field theory with predictions on the instrumentalist side, and we can't really talk about half way defining a particle ontology, the reason that people do it anyway is because it doesnt make sense to not do it, so we might as well go all the way to looking for a sensible version of qm and actually thinking about the quantum systems as classical well defined variables in some form that have the statistical behavior of quantum mechanics where we have checked it. the pure instrumentalist approach is to think only about effects of measurments apparatuses, and signals sent between them and a black box called nature, in truth the workings of the apparatuses also become a black box, where we only have circumstantial understanding of how they work in terms of having tested their effects, to some degree that is just how science works, but having working theories and ideas about why they work the way they do and the same with nature is necessary for thinking and also doesnt really hamper anything, and if we are to do that it makes no sense to think about that in a half way instrumental way, instead of a properly sound information theory motivated way, namely information in = information out, in all quantum theories the information out is lacking and the information in is lacking. the definite outcomes that we see must have some root in reality, just saying there is necessarily new information being generated is delusional, it is just giving up explaining things in a way that is flattering to the ego of the people who fail to see how to do that, and that is no way to do science, that is a rather scholastic twisting of your own arm to prove a linguistically satisfying answer to a problem you have no idea how to solve, it is our modern day version of sympathies and antipathies. "new information pops up in an experiement you did, and you don't know where it came from? well that must just be fundamental to reality i guess. " that is the kind of nonsense that is the antithesis of proper science. quantum mechanical probability calculus is only a mixture of independent and dependent variables in a classical theory of probability, and there is no reason to say there is anything new, we just think that because the classical version of it with a "statistics over other variables" postulate is crazy or breaks some rules we set for ourselves, that it is sensible to talk about quantum mechanics as something entierly new, when all it is, and all it ever could be is a paculiar theory of variables that depend upon each other and that has a quasi random generator for the outcomes we do not know, so it is like doing statistics over unknowns, with the outcomes depending on each other in the possible ways allowed by quantum mechanics. that could have been explained to you in 1850 by a decent statistician.

The local vacuum speed of light is a constant for all inertial observers is a consequence of the gravitational field and completely independent of the other fields living on top of it. Any pair of null separated events will have a coordinate speed equal to the speed along the geodesic of the observer (given some world-line with tangent vector, U, the norm of the tangent vector is g(U,U)=1).

The idea of the ether as a gas-like medium can also be accepted on the basis of the analysis of the behavior of elementary particles at their interactions. The question arises how the particles of ether can be held in the composition of the elementary particles of matter, if ether is a gas? The answer to this question is not difficult if we take into account that elementary particles of matter are toroidal vortex formations of compacted gas-like ether. The basis for this statement is the fact that toroidal vortex formations are the only form of motion capable of holding a compacted gas in a closed volume.

I could imagine that certain things about space time is behaving like a "fluid" or could be describes to some degree as a kind of something of quasi-granular nature, which could be equivalent to its "relativistic" nature of bending and time dilation. But again this seems to be for me like some arbitrary takes on the whole ordeal just defining something, giving it a name and stating what and how it contradicts something or is contradicted by something else. I see the dynamic of vortex formation as something interesting and I read about some parallels being done when scientists analyzed oceanic vortexes and compared them to black holes. I can't remember where I got this from and how much it was just a mathematical concept being proven for something, but considering that everything is spiraling and having momentum it seems a pretty nice analogy. In the end in both cases the force of gravity is involved. ;) I have recently spent a lot of time breaking my head about what Dark Matter and Dark Energy is, how the Higgs-Field and Pion Condensate are attributing/contributing mass of baryonic matter and around the realization that WE, made out of "ordinary" matter, are actually the exotic one in the universe. Can we even state with confidence that our "reality" or order of matter can exist outside the halo of what we call dark matter? If I understood the experts in this field correctly, nearly every galaxy is either within a halo of dark matter or bound in the filaments, that are pretty much condensation of dark matter and "normal" matter.

Dear Lucas Rafaj, I´ve watched several of your videos, and I really like your analytic and a bit critical cosmological sense. ------- IMHO, we have much too much unsolved and non-revisited cosmological dogmas and theories, including the very important question of Aether, which IMO is drowned in mathematical speculative mental constructs. ------ If you want a natural example of the aether concept, just take a reentering spacecraft getting heated up through the Earth’s atmosphere = the Earth´s "aethereal substance" by friction in the atmospheric density. ---------- Everything, including light, and other EM frequencies meets a resistance media which slows down the objects and the EM-velocity, thus transferring energy to the media, so NOTHING is constant at all, and this also affects the cosmological disagreement on the assumed “cosmic expansion tension rate”. -------- OK, I could go on and on with cosmological questions and natural philosophical comments, but if you like a closer collaboration, just leave an email-address and I´ll contact you there. Best Wishes

@dariuslegacy3406 5 месяцев назад
Then there should be evidence of EM velocity slowing down right? Aside from the abstract argumentation presented here, what evidence do we have for the slowing down of EM radiation? Special and General relativity imply light being redshifted on cosmological scales, but it's speed remaining constant, your interpretation should imply wavelengths of light don't change but their frequencies do? How would one prove this and what kind of experiments can be used to disprove it?
@ivornelsson2238
@ivornelsson2238 5 месяцев назад
​@@dariuslegacy3406 Indirectly there is evidence in the very assumption of "exponential exceding expansion of the Universe" which is an impossible posture. When EM radiation passes cosmic elements (aether in this case) it disperse its energy, thus de facto slowing down. When not counting on this EM delay, cosmologists wrongly get the impression of cosmic expansion and the impossible exponential expansion the longer the cosmic distances.

@@ivornelsson2238 OK, let me know if I'm mistaken but you're saying you're discontent with the interpretation that the redshift among galaxies that's proportional to their distance from the observer being seen as a sign of expansion is wrong? Aside from asserting that it's impossible, what experimental means could you think of to differentiate whether cosmological redshift is caused by doppler shift (in which case the universe expanding isn't an assumption but an observation) or, as you call it, the "de facto" slowing down of light? If the speed of this light is still measured to be equal to c, even after it's been "defacto slowed down" then by definition it has not slowed down. It's still moving at the speed of causality.

​@@dariuslegacy3406 Thanks for replying. Yes to your initial conclusion. The redshift method is fine when dealing with something rotationally moving away or towards the center of observation. In the same whirling galaxy, you´ll get both red- and blueshift measurements because of the radial electromagnetic emission. In cosmos in general the redshift measumeent is simply showing different electromagnetic velocities which loigically differs according to different targets, hence you get different redshift numbers. The conventional determined "constant speed c" is simply wrong. You´re making a preassumed circular argument here. Make an internet search for light experiment of the Danish physicists Lene Hau, where she prove to slown down the "constant speed of light" to about 17 meter/second.
@dariuslegacy3406
@dariuslegacy3406 5 месяцев назад
@@ivornelsson2238 Alright, I think I'm starting to get an understanding of your line of reasoning.. Doppler shift is apparently only a reflection of rotating source (like the wave-source is in an orbit) ? Like binary star systems orbiting a common center, at any given moment one of the stars may be moving towards our POV in its elliptical orbit and that's what leads to blueshift, while the other star is in retrograde and that leads to redshift? My question is, why does this imply that the light waves themselves are propagating at different speeds in a vaccum? Lene Hau's experiments passed light waves through a Bose-Einstein Condensate, which is not a vaccum by any means, so it's unsurprising that she was able to slow light down since it's long been known that light slows down when it enters a medium with a higher refractive index. B-E-Condensates likely have very high refractive indices because of the high number of bosons in the lowest energy states. I don't see how that proves EM propagation at different speeds in a vaccum though.

Aether is a fluid that has no physical but electrical property, with a permittivity e0 measuring 8.8541817128*10-12 Farad per meter. Therefore Aether is a component required to permit (e field) and (the displacement charge q) to launch into the vacuum-Aether for light to propagate. Furthermore, Aether, is a fluid, always attaches to matter, size from subatomic particles, to atoms, to molecules, to ions, to solid, to liquid, to gas and to plasma. When gas, liquid, solid moves Aether drag along with it, also drag with the MMX apparatus. On the other hand, in the macrocosm scale, Aether as a fluid continues to drag remotely and indirectly at a mean velocity dominated by mean distance and mean mass of bodies in the vicinity. With that we can rewrite SR.

and the first thing you say that time must be treated equally to space is just a very very bad way to formalize physics. it means nothing, the same systems has representations that take none of the postulates of SR. none of the conventions and so on. it is just representation theory that allows you to throw away and see these conventions for what they are, bullshit conventions for making the same identical physical system seem more consistant and for it to have simpler equations of motion. there are all kinds of representations of THE EXACT SAME physics, where the speed of light is not the same in all directions, where simultaneity is absolute, where length contraction and time dilation is only objective in one frame of reference, but has optical analogs in all other frames and so on. essentially all these representations are identical to special relativity, and that means they cannot be told apart by experiment, they are causaly identical without assuming half of what many physicists assume characterizes special relativity. let's step away from special relativity for a minute and talk about something slightly simpler, what if physicists did't know that there was some gauge in variance in qft, they would go on arguing about what gauges are legitimate and what gauges are crazy nonsense that breaks the principles of the special gauge that is very well established. this is exactly what is happening to peoples brains when they think most of the usual conventions for relativistic physics is the physics of the theory, but that is not the case at all. representation theory only requires that the same results are measurable inside a theory ad the causality is preserved for the coordinate independent physics to be preserved. but if you then put in a theory that has dependent variables at space like separations, then you are in trouble, if you are delusional enough to convince yourself that such a thing makes sense with no interaction between them, and so the show is on, quantum field theory makes sense locally, but once you talk about space like separation you have no idea what to do with the correlations and simultaneity. quantum field theory is local by fiat, which is a silly idea, a self flattering idea, that has nothing to do with reality and that stops people from thinking clearly at all, it is unfortunate that the realistic alternative has not been seen yet in experiements in terms of the character of the interactions that make the variables dependent on each other, but we will, and i sincerly hope the people who are content with accepting nonsense uncritically realize that they have to stop just yapping about stuff as if it made sense when it doesnt. you can always throw your hands up and say "this must just be the way it is" but that is cheap and easy and if we go on doing that for a while we will not understand anything.

a classical theory of variables could also just give you all the phenomena derived from any ad hock analysis of the uncertainty principle or any other effect, the world is your oyster when it comes to mathematics, all you need is the imagination to write it down. just because people can only come up with naive and silly classical theories, doesn't meant the criteria found in those can be used to prove theorems about quantum mechanics vs classical mechanics as a whole, those terms are retarded. mechanics is one single study, with a whole range of systems, most of which people simply have no idea about, we are over here thinking we know the world must be made out of rocks or water like some especially intelligent baboon sitting on the riverbank pondering existence. the justifications for the quantum/classical divide are extremely poorly motivated, the only reason so many people buy into it is because they are bad at maths and logic apparently. mathematically quantum mechanics is just a probability calculus over variables that have some interdependence that is not explained by the dynamics of independent variables. but they can easily be explained by interdependent hidden variables, no issue there what so ever, we are just back to classical probability theory and classical mechanics right away. there we go done and dusted, 100 years of nonsense in the trash can. the quantum theories we have are useful and i don't suggest any of it should be just thrown away, the stuff that agrees with experiment is fine, but beyond that we are just talking nonsense along side mathematics we understand very poorly apparently. i am a bit ranty here, but we have gone too long listening to a bunch of mathematically inconsistent nonsense form people who are amazed at how weird the world is, when it is in fact just their misconceptions that are weird and irreconcilable, quantum mechanics is completely reasonable and easy to understand if you just admit the variables are dependent and the dependence can be explained by additional independent and dependent variables. i am sick and tired of nonsense being spoken about as reasonable, and reasonable thinking being spoken about as confused, it is high time we start acting like adults and stop this nonsense from going any further than it already has, this is parents show up in lord of the flies territory. the mathematics in quantum theory is fine, it is just a probability calculus over unknowns that give rise to some observable, that is all. not complicated at all, all the weirdness can be summed up in the dependence and how they can arise form dynamics.

you see bud, you can avoid it easily by logic, any correlation in quantum mechanics can be explained by extra variables, and interactions between the observables in terms of those variables. that explains the whole range of logically possible measurment outcomes over experiements we have ever done. that is easy, it is the physics community that came upon a hard problem and convinced themselves nature was profoundly different to cover for their own egos. if you doubt that then okey, good for you, but if you take my statement seriously you might escape form the delusion of your intellectual ancestors and actually think in a reasonable and mathematically sound way. think in terms of the set of outcomes of experiements, then think about sets of variables and variable dependences that give those answers. it is litterally impossible to give quantum mechanics a form with functions, if it is not true that the results can also be explained with classically interdependant variable. every no go theorem or argument is just about a small class of classical field theory brain farts that came out of small minded folk with a desire to prove themselves right.

Why does everyone just assume that special relativity is correct and that anything that violates it must be wrong? At this point, it is not a scientific theory, but a cult belief. Scientific theories can always be disproved. Unfalsifiable cult beliefs not so much.

If a scientific theory is correct it can't be disproved. At most it can be brought to its limits where it no longer apply like Newtonian mechanics for large velocities. Special relativity has a history of experimental confirmations and at this point it is highly unlikely it ever will be disproved. In this video I am talking about why quantim fields can't be aether since it is very common question and the logic is this. Aether would break one of the postulates of special relativity namely the principle of relativity. Quantum fields were created based on special relativity so the SR is there by default and therefore this quantum fields must obey the first postulate as well and therefore they can't serve as Aether. I am not trying to make an argument that SR is correct. I am trying to say that it is compatible with field theories whether quantum or classical.

@lukasrafajpps Special relativity is not even applicable to this universe as it only deals with inertial (non accelerated reference frames. There is no such thing in this universe because everything is undergoing numerous accelerations. Also there has been a lot of fraud that supported Einstein's theories from Arthur Eddington's cherry picked data, to the publication of absolutely fraudulent data in the Hafele Keating Experiment. General Relativity does not even match observations at the scales it is supposed to work at which is why they came up with the ad hoc contrivances of dark matter and dark energy. This is the abandonment of the scientific method as the scientific method does not allow the ad hoc reasoning that allowed Ptolemy's geocentric model to persist long after it stopped comporting with observations. While a correct theory will not be disproved, it must be falsifiable to be scientific. If it cannot be falsified, it is not a scientific theory. If every time a discrepancy between theory and observation is observed, imaginary gobbledygook is conjured into existence to explain away the discrepancy, the theory does not do much to explain anything. Just because a theory matches observations does not make the theory correct, either. Ptolemy's geocentric model did until better observations were made and then it was altered to fit the new observations repeatedly. Turns out that the theory was just wrong. That is exactly what is happening with Einstein's relativity and the big bang theory right now.

@claytonbealcom There is something wrong about a theory in which you can get the wrong answer numerous times and then just change an assumption and tweak some parameters and then the math works out.

An aether would be a special reference frame with which all other reference frames could be referenced. A primary premise of special relativity is that no such frame exists, and each reference frame can consider itself at rest. It is impossible for numerous reference frames with various motions to consider themselves at rest if there is a universal reference frame with which they can all be compared.

@@mikek.1761 The aether was postulated as a medium for the propagation of light which pervades all space. As such, this medium would be a reference frame just as pretty much all media are as all media have measurable properties. For example, sailors used to use water as a reference frame to measure the speed being traveled by tossing a rope with knots tied at regular intervals and measuring how much rope was pulled overboard in a specific time period (usually a minute.) Today, we often use pressure sensors which are much more accurate and reliable to do the same thing. Similar methods can be used to measure relative velocity with air. With the aether, one would have to measure differences in the frequency of light or perhaps some other electromagnetic effects. There is no specific person that "decided" that media have these properties. They simply have these measurable properties which is how we know they are there. And yes, the aether exists because all space has known and measurable properties such as magnetic permeability and dielectric permittivity. No, light is not little particles. Light is a wave and waves require a medium regardless of whatever nonsense physicists try to claim.

Are these fields real or merely abstractions based upon workable mathematics? Do Physicists really think that these fields exist or are they just following the Math in a way that they can derive a plausible narrative as to what is? They are a useful model but that doesn't make them a fundamental truth. I also wonder if your dichotomy between scalar time and vector space may be inaccurate, what if there is a third option: treat both in an algebraic geometric way such as in a spacetime algebra? And don't forget, just because dmdt > h/2pi doesn't mean that particles 'must' exist .. that is just a choice made by theorists.

Well, it is nearly impossible to have a proper intuition for what these fields are. Quantum field theory is a mess in general. Many infinities that need to be renormalized. In the future, we almost certainly must come up with something better. Yes, QFT is not fundamental, therefore we can't say whether these fields exist (most likely not IMO) but its experimental predictions are outstanding. It was not a scalar time and vector space. In quantum mechanics, position is represented by an operator that acts on Hilbert space. This means we can physically measure position. There is no such operator for time. "what if there is a third option: treat both in an algebraic geometric way such as in a spacetime algebra?" To me this seems going the same way as QFT but idk

@@lukasrafajpps That time is scaler and a Hilbert space has been useful in formulating quantum Mechanics is providential but not necessary. It has served its purpose for over a century because it was cast in concrete as a solid life-raft for folk to hang on to whilst coming to terms with the vagaries of the subject. Its formalism served to underpin The Copenhagen Agreement but that is as far as it goes. There is no reason why a more sophisticated perhaps simpler mathematical formalism couldn't be brought to bare. Clifford Algebra's for instance or more commonly 'Geometric Algebra' these days. Just because Physics is stuck in the formalism of the past doesn't mean that we can't make progress with new intuitions and mathematical tools more appropriate to the task. The beautiful simplicity of Geometric Algebra is stunning yet, for socio-political reasons the Physics Community has never picked it up and run with it, which is a shame. Perhaps quantum Mechanics would seem more intuitive with a decent mathematical basis?

@lukasrafajpps Год назад
well, it might be true but nobody came up with anything better. and at the days of developing quantum field theory these were the issues physicists had to solve. Most certailny QM could be formulated in a different way but there has to be someone to find it and it must prove to be useful. If this happened most certainly physicists would pick up on it. I can't imagine that physicists would let a promising theory die since I see now how many different papers are produced about useless stuff.

Hey Lucas. Inasmuch as you've been obliquely invoking aether in some of your vids, lets face the fact that no such 'ether/aether' exists. The _word itself_ is an anachronism connoting something extremely insubstantial, tenuous, un-dynamic and functionless. As a synonym for 'space', it has no place in scientific discourse because WORDS HAVE MEANING. 'Aether/ether' needs to be kicked out of the science lexicon forever. As for the contextual meaning of "space", lets first apply an analogy: Picture a fish deep in the ocean. He has no concept of "water" or "ocean", 'water molecules', pressure or density. To his perception, his domain is simply "space", a great void of 'nothing'. He feels no physical presence or pressure, because he's composed of and immersed in, the perceived "no-thing". He's neutrally buoyant in it. In like manner, our perception of "space" is a 'no-thing' or nothingness. We're oblivious that we, even down to our constituent atoms, are *full of and swimming in* one great 'Ocean', the Plenum of space. Our very atoms, down to their quantum and subquantum constituency, are FULL of It. It's said that an atom is 99.9999% or so "empty space", which translates to it being 99.9999% FULL of 'Plenum stuff'. As with Mr. Fish, we're also in hydraulic equalibrium with it, sensing no physical presence of it. And because its 'cellularity' is sub-Planckian, below our sensory and EM resolution, we go on perceiving It as 'void' or nothing, just as "water molecules" would be to Mr. Fish in his domain of "nothing". In like manner, we, our planet and our Cosmos are dwellers in our element, the 'Ocean' of subPlanckian space. NOT an 'aether/ether'. This little vid contains a neat metaphor of 'particles' popping out of and back into "nothing". Begins at 3: 40 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fY8pucNaaH0.html Under a Plenum model, there'd be no need for dedicated 'fields' for each particle, because all particles and fields would be process IN and OF the one primal Substratum.
